For some reason, this year has been harder to stay focused on things. I'm pulled in many different directions and "distracted" has felt like my middle name. No matter how out of focus I "feel", one thing is for sure, I will do my best to stay faithful to my Lord.
Here it is already mid July, and I'm happy to be still on track with this year's challenge to plant God's Word in my heart with Beth Moore and thousands of other Siesta around the world. We are memorizing a new verse every two weeks (on the 1st and the 15th) and doing our best to live them out in our everyday lives. For verse #14, I'm moving on towards the end of the Beatitudes!
"You're blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The persecution drives you even deeper into God's kingdom." (MSG)
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (NIV)

Your middle name needs to be changed to "Blessed", because you are just that! :) God's love is poured out on those who call Him Lord....may you have a fresh, new pouring of His Holy Spirit on your life today, Sista'!
